Throwing in the ones I've quickly looked over.
I don't own pokemon...yada yada yada
--Emotions--
Powerful emotions surged through me as I gazed upon the red cloth in my hand. The sun, dimming lightly, had already begun to set before my eyes. The same thoughts filled me… the thought that we were destined…the thought of me, being there… I looked over the grassy edge before me, more thoughts filling my head. The water splashed violently at the rocks below me, yet the rocks will stand strong… stand fearlessly… unlike me…
"Brendan? You're standing pretty close to the cliff there… Don't scare me now buddy." I turned around to face the source of the voice. Wally was standing a few yards behind me. He had on a look of amusement, but I could sense from his voice that he was quite worried.
"I was just thinking…" I replied, slowly turning my head back to the sunset. I pocketed the red cloth, a soft smile appearing on my face.
"About her… right?" Wally asked softly, his green hair blowing softly as an ocean breeze blew in.
"Yes…" I replied, with no hint of remorse. I sniffed the air slightly, the salty air tingling my senses. I shivered a bit from the cold, though I had asked for it being up here so long.
"Come on… we better head back to camp… we were suppose to meet up with them today…" Wally said as he put his hand on my shoulder. I laughed quietly as I was pulled willingly from my spot.
"Do you think… that she has already forgotten about me?" I asked quietly, ignoring his face. I saw from the corner of my eye though, Wally had given me a look of pity. I ignored it for a moment, a flash of anger appearing on my face.
"It's only been a month. Drew had arranged for us to meet up with them… you guys have been through too much together…" He replied, his face hardening. I was surprised; it was one of those rare times where Wally was serious. I smirked; I knew he was still a goof ball at heart. A ringing sound erupted from my Pokenav, disrupting the silence. I sighed slightly as I reached and unclipped. Turning on the backlight, I looked in surprise; May's number flashed brightly as it continued to ring. I hesitated slightly, before answering it.
"Hello…?" I answered. I heard nothing in reply. "May?" I tried again, but sounds of sniffing filled my ears. I widened my eyes. "Is there something wrong? May!" I yelled. Wally looked over, concern written clearly on his face.
"Brendan… something happened to Drew… I'm at the Pokemon Center right now… I don't know what to do…" She sniffed quietly. A sudden flood of guilt overwhelmed my body. My body felt numb…
"Don't worry… we will be right there…" I replied, my voice cracking up. I trembled slightly as I clipped the Pokenav back onto my belt. Wally turned to me, looking for answers. "Drew is injured… she couldn't tell me anymore. We have to head to the Pokemon Center quickly." I said. His reaction was as expected, his face in surprise and worry. We both ran in the direction of the Center, neither looking nor speaking until we got there.

May ran up to me as we entered, sobbing silently into my chest. I hesitantly wrapped my arms around her, the only thing that had seemed plausible at the moment. "It's going to be alright…" I replied. Wally looked at us and nodded at me, before heading in to see Drew. The guilt I had felt before reappeared. Thoughts filled my head… had I wanted Drew hurt… did I actually want him to suffer… suffer for my selfishness…
"He was attacked by a Seviper… he blocked it as it came after me…" She said, her sobbing slowing down as she looked up at me. "It's entirely my fault…"
I looked down at her. I frowned slightly at the thoughts that ran through me. Even as I comforted her…that inappropriate thought… that touch… that emotion… her face was so beautiful… even tear streaked… I shook my head, emptying those thoughts. "No it isn't…"
Wally walked out a little while after, his face a bit calm but stress could be shown. "The anti-venom isn't working, and his fever hasn't gone down…"
I could sense May fidgeting, her sobbing had stopped a while ago but her eyes no longer held that sparkle… the sparkle which makes her… who she is… I… I can't stand seeing her like this!
"That Drash Berry… the one under the cliff… That would heal him for sure!" I yelled as I stood up. She looked up at me in surprise, a glint of hope appearing in her eyes.
"Brendan... its too-" Wally began but I held a hand up to him. he looked at me in surprise.
I smiled inwardly, as my heart began to beat wildly while I ran for the door. Someone had yelled something, but only hearing the words 'dangerous' and 'Pokemon', I ignored it. I ran back to the cliff, the cold wind whipping against my face, but I couldn't care less; I was ready to give anything… even my life… for May's happiness. I looked down, my adrenaline pumping madly in my veins. I slowly slid down the cliff, hold on to a thick trunk that had stuck out on the side. I stretched my arms, reaching for the top of the berry. Gripping the top leaves, I pulled hard just as the ground gave way under me. The trunk that I held snapped violently. I held the item closely, protecting it as I rolled to a complete stop before the rocks. Rubbing the dirt off my face, I looked at the fallen disaster and smiled. A natural ramp had formed as result. Limping slightly, I set off back to the Center, a new confidence growing within me.
----
All I remember next was getting back there, May running up to me… Wally saying something incoherent. I groaned as I sat up in my bed, bandages wrapped around me in several places. May laid asleep next to me, her head resting on the bedside. I looked at her in surprise; she should have been with Drew… not me… The thing that struck me the most; my bed sheets laid wet under her... has she been crying?
"Brendan… Brendan… don't… no…" I heard her whisper. Was she dreaming about… me?
"May… I'm fine." I said quietly waking her up slowly. She looked up at me, her eyes widening slightly.
"Brendan!" She cried out my name and rammed into my chest, sobbing. I winced as the pain shot through me. I couldn't help but smile though… she was crying for me…
"May… I'm fine… Please go see Drew… He needs you by his side right now…" I said as I looked at her. She frowned cutely as I wiped away her tears with my fingers.
"But-" I put my fingers to her lips, shushing her slightly before pushing her in the direction of the door. She looked at me sympathetically.
"I'll be right here… go on…" I said softly.
"You better wait for me." She replied sharply as she headed out. I couldn't help but notice the smile that formed on her face. Her eyes had that spark in them again, the spark which draws me…
"I'll wait… because… " I stopped midway. I looked at the window and stared into the sky. One new thought ran through my head… Do I stand a chance? I smiled slightly as the familiar emotion filled me.
"I love you…"
